Second witness is from medical examiner's office - he is the one who observed the samples - 47 specimens in all that crime scene techs, etc. sent from the clinic.

Specimens ranged from feet to legs to almost fully intact fetuses. To explain the callousness of Gosnell, the prosecution made a point to have the medical examiner witness explain that Gosnell kept these specimens in containers ranging from a cherry-limeade cup to a cat food container.

Even of the specimens he observed that weren't in the third trimester, the medical examiner said there were a few that were deemed "viable" meaning even without medical care they could've survived.

Chief Medical Examiner Sam Gulino for the City of Philadelphia states were specimens he observed from #gosnell clinic that were "viable"

So, at the top the judge came out and mentioned the increased media attention to the case -- reiterated that there is an intense gag order. Total reporters here looks to be in the 15-20 range... apparently was around 3-4 for the weeks prior.

Gosnell talks to his defense lawyer often and took notes almost constantly.

First witness was 30 year veteran OBGYN - his recomended dosage for an anthestetic was 1/5000th what Gosnell apparently gave to the woman who died at his office. (1mg vs 5 grams)

(12:25) Additionally - the lawyers and judge had a sidebar in the back - the reporters around us commented on how that was a first - all other sidebars had been in the courtroom (again the increase in media)
